| Late - November Newsletter
| | |
Hi
This is a copy of the last Newsletter I sent out - hope you enjoy the read.
Ooooh - this time in a month it will be Christmas Eve! Yay - I just love this
time of the year! What a busy time we've had since my last newsletter - World Card-Making
Day was great fun, we've had two different weeks of regular classes that have been Christmas themed, a Blendabilites Technique Class and a Box Making Class, as well as a couple of Craft with Jax days. It really is great to craft for a job, and to get to share that with so many of you when we create together is one of the highlights of being a Stampin' Up! demo for me. On the home front I'd planned on a weekend away
earlier this month but unexpectedly was away for a second weekend which did mean I missed the Pataka Market. So sorry if you called in and I wasn't there. However, the weekends away were filled with the pleasure of visiting family in my hometown of Wairoa, as well as in Napier and in Gisborne. It is great to catch up and spend time with loved ones. I did sneak in my Big Shot and punch Boards - among other things - and we had a fun afternoon of crafting! Here I am with Beth, and Roy's sister and Mum in Gisborne - three generations of crafters!
Our Holiday Catalogue has six weeks to run. I have a few still available, so please contact me if you haven't got one yet and I will get a copy out to
you. You can also check out the catalogue by clicking on this photo of the front cover (pdf 9.5MB) |
So grab a tea or coffee if you'd like, relax and catch up on the news from creativeJax and Stampin' Up! In this newsletter you can

Join between 25 Nov & 2 Dec and receive - 25% off Starter
Kit and
5% Cash Back on December Sales! As you know I love being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - for so many reasons. And I am always happy to talk with any of you about the opportunities and rewards that being a Demo offers - but I have to say that Stampin' Up! have just announced a week-long joining promotion that is particularly amazing! If you join Stampin' Up! as a Demo by Tuesday 2 December you will get your Starter Kit at a 25% discount - yes, you read that correctly - a 25%
discount! The kit usually cost $189 and you get to choose up to $285 worth of Stampin' Up! product, as well as getting a business supplies pack worth $90 - that's a kit worth $375. During this promotion you will still get the same kit worth $375, but you will only pay $141.75 - wow! One of the ongoing benefits of being a demo is that you purchase products at a discounted rate. Another is that you get early access to products when a new catalogue is released. With the Occasions Catalogue being released and Sale-A-Bration starting on 6th January, all demonstrators have the opportunity to purchase items from the new catalogue and also earn free Sale-A-Bration items during the preorder period that runs in December. So ... if you join during this promotion, not only do you get a discount on your
kit, but you also get early access to new items at the regular demonstrator discount and can earn free items too! But wait - there's more she says! No, not a free set of steak knives - something much better - cash! The promotion also entitles you to receive a cash back payment of 5% for your commissionable sales you make in December! That's the Build your own bonus part of the promotion! If you have ever thought about joining Stampin' Up! as a Demonstrator, or were previously a demo and are thinking of rejoining, then now could definitely be the time to join - I'd love to have you in my growing thINK Creative Team of demonstrators.

Merry and Bright Extra Special Christmas

Last month Stampin' Up! released the Merry and Bright Extra Special Christmas Supplement. This Supplement contains even more gorgeous Christmas Products along with some of the already released items. You can download the catalogue and have a look at all the goodies by clicking on the image to the right (pdf 1,1MB)
This kit makes 26 decorative stars in six different sizes,. They are made from red, green, white and natural craft card-stock and gold glitter card, and range in
size from a large 38.1cm diameter down to a cute 5.1cm diameter. The kit contents are all die-cut with adhesive already on the star tabs. There are plenty of bows, sequins, laser-cut wood snowflakes, banners, words and tags.
I'm also loving the Hello December Project Life Card Collection and Accessory
Pack. I've set up my Cherry Cobbler 6x8 inch album with the cards and come December I'll be snapping away, slipping photos into pockets, journalling and adding some of the gorgeous embellishments from the accessory pack - can't wait!
Check out a Stampin' Up! Youtube video about the Project Life Hello December collection HERE Products from the Merry and Bright Extra Special Christmas
Supplement are available while stocks last. Contact me if you wish to order anything - or shop with me Online HERE and have your order delivered directly to you. Note: While all items are currently still available in New Zealand, some items have already sold out in overseas markets so if there is something you'd like don't delay! |

creativeJax Many Marvelous Markers Club
|
|
I've recently had several queries about the creativeJax Markers Club so I thought I give you a recap of what the club involves and point you in the direction of where you can download more information and encourage you to join a Markers Club
during the upcoming Sale-A Bration promotion. Clubs take
advantage of the power of collective ordering. In the Markers Club, each person commits to the club for four months. Each month an order is placed for all the current Stampin' Write Markers (a Many Marvelous Markers set and both In-Color Marker sets) as well as a pack of cardstock for each of the 6 available Color Collections. The cost and the products are then share between the Club Members. Each person pays $99.97 each month. By the end of the four months every person will have 48 Stampin’ Write Markers from the Brights (10), Subtles (10), Regals (10), Neutrals (8 #) and In-Color (10) collections in a horizontal storage case, plus all the matching card stock - 120 sheets in total! In
addition each person would have received at least $55 worth of product for FREE from being Hostess for one of the months. and will have earned creativeJax loyalty stamps towards a FREE ink Pad. Anytime is a great time to join a Markers Club. In fact it was one of the first things I did when I was introduced to Stampin' Up! several years ago. I wanted all of the available colours in paper and in ink. Belonging to a Markers Club during Sale-A-Bration is even better! Not only do you get all the bonuses mentioned above - but you have the opportunity to earn several free Sale-A-Bration
items. I hope to run at least one Markers club during Sale-A-Bration which runs from 6 January to 31 March 2015. I already have 3 people who have indicated they will be filling places so be in quick for the
remaining space. If I get enough people I will run a second club. To maximise the benefits for all participants, the club will be completed within the Sale-A-Bration period. Dates that payment would be required to be made to me are: Tuesday 6th
January Monday 2nd February Monday 2 March Monday 30 March
In order to arrange the club by the beginning of Sale-A-Bration I will need confirmation from all participants by 18 December.
Please let me know if you have any questions and please book early if you would like to join the Club.

So you've made it to the end of my lengthy newsletter - well done!
And your
reward is a couple more video links.
The first is a fun, "Feel Good" video from Stampin' Up! that highlights our Statement of the Heart which I've included above.
And the second video is a 2-Minute Tuesday Tip from one of my favourite US demos - Connie Stewart. We discussed the different types of Black ink in case, but I thought I'd share this quick video from Connie which summarises what we've talked about really
clearly.
